The Internet is all a-buzz about a new iPod or maybe an ultraportable from Mac. There have been patents registered that people have been speculating about for so long that they have imagined what I hoped from the very first, the return of the Apple Newton.

• GigaOM : » A Non Touch iPod Coming?

When Steve Jobs returned to Apple, he immediately closed down the Newton division. What had looked like something that would be good for me if only they could get the form factor into a size that would fit into my purse, suddenly was snatched away from me. If Apple resurrected the Newton, I might actually be convinced to abandon my Treo in favor of it.

Can I have my Newton back, please?
